title: Synthesis and pharmacological properties of some derivatives of 3-phenylimidazo[4,5-b]pyridine.
abstract: The one-pot synthesis and properties of some derivatives of 3-phenylimidazo [4,5-b]pyridine (4a-g) were described. The central action of compounds 4a, 4f and 4g has been investigated using behavioral tests in mice and rats. The tested compounds showed a potent sedative effect. Compound 4f has central serotoninolytic properties in the m-CPP induced hyperthermia in rats.
